Epidemiology and Burden Major Depressive Disorder MDD Depression
Epidemiology and Burden Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)
Depression is a highly prevalent disorder Depression is a chronic, recurring, and progressive disorder affecting 300 -350 million people worldwide 1, 2 • The percentage of people suffering from MDD worldwide was 4. 4% (4. 1– 4. 7%) in 2010. 2 • The prevalence of MDD remained very consistent between 1990 (4. 4% (95% uncertainty: 4. 2– 4. 7%)), 2005 (4. 4% (4. 1– 4. 7%) and 2010. • Prevalence in 2010 was higher in females at 5. 5% (5. 0– 6. 0%) compared to males at 3. 2% (3. 0– 3. 6%). 2 • Across the lifespan, prevalence of MDD increases steadily between 3 and 19 years; peaks between 20 and 64 years; decreased between 65 to 74 years.
